She found that AI applications have occurred in eight areas of the media industry including audience content recommendations/discovery, audience engagement, augmented audience experience, message optimization, content management, content creation, audience insights and operational automation.

“Its utilities and transformative power are so significant that, for media companies, the decision is not about whether to adopt the cognitive technologies but when and how to establish an AI foundation to improve their existing operations and identify new business opportunities,” said Chan-Olmsted.
